Well, I was originally going to write a brony power metal anthem that talked about friendship and love and sticking together in the face of adversity (or the season finale), but then it turned into this thing. Have a song about dying birds and sad pony princesses and things!

LYRICS:

In the ruins of the castle in the woods
Burned down to the ground where I stood
I cried

I sank to my knees and wept
Cold, lonely, poor and spent
"How I tried..."

And from the depths of doubt
A voice cried out,

"Phoenix, rise!"

I looked up and the phoenix was there
Bright, lustrous, gold and fair
And I sighed

And I watched as the phoenix grew old
Burned down to the ashes cold
And I hide

And back from the ashes came
That bird of flame

Phoenix, rise!

In time built a castle in the clouds
Standing tall and proud
I still cry

I count the seasons come and gone
I look back and I never move on
And I sigh

But when the phoenix sings
My spirit rings,

"Phoenix, rise!"
